I have a problem with my small workgroup (6 computers).
In the process of adding a new computer to the workgroup
I have lost all connectivity to the workgroup from all of
my computers. I've tried shutting everything down and
restarting. I've checked to make sure the Computer
Browser is started on all computers. I've even tried
renaming the workgroup, but continue to get the same
result. I have two computers running Windows 200 Pro and
the rest with Windows XP Pro. The message I get when I
try to view workgroup computers from My Network Places is
the following:

"Waldinc is not accessible. You might not have permission
to use this network resource. Contact the administrator
of this server to find out if you have access
permissions. The list of servers for this workgroup is
not currently available."

Please help!

Thanks,
Bill Armstrong
